Applied colloid colloid (kŏl`oid) [Gr.,=gluelike], a mixture in which one substance is divided into minute particles (called colloidal particles) and dispersed throughout a second substance.  and surface chemistry.

Two professors of chemistry at the National University of Australia examine the properties of colloidal colloidal

of the nature of a colloid.

 dispersions, the high surface area of the dispersed phase, and the chemistry of these interfaces. The undergraduate textbook introduces methods for determining the surface tension of liquids, the thermodynamics thermodynamics, branch of science concerned with the nature of heat and its conversion to mechanical, electric, and chemical energy. Historically, it grew out of efforts to construct more efficient heat engines—devices for extracting useful work from expanding  of adsorption adsorption, adhesion of the molecules of liquids, gases, and dissolved substances to the surfaces of solids, as opposed to absorption, in which the molecules actually enter the absorbing medium (see adhesion and cohesion). , and the structure of surfactants, emulsions, and charged colloids.
